+## Description
+
+The MeshPoE-S3 is a universal PCB designed for use in LoRA mesh networks such as **Reticulum**, **Meshtastic**, and **MeshCore**.
+
+- Based on the [WaveShare ESP32-S3 ETH Development Board](https://www.waveshare.com/esp32-s3-eth.htm)  
+- LoRA modules: [EByte E22-series](https://www.cdebyte.com/products/E22-900M30S)
+
+Key features:
+
+- **Compact form factor** suitable for embedded outdoor mesh nodes  
+- **Power-over-Ethernet (PoE)** support for convenient outdoor deployment  
+- **Ethernet connectivity** for mesh networking  
+
+This repository contains the KiCad project files, PCB schematics, board images, and Gerbers for fabrication.
